NEW HAVEN, May 6, 1889. Editors Daily Crimson:

During the Easter vacation, the nine took its usual spring trip, which on the whole was very successful. Although but two victories can be claimed, yet the practice was very valuable in showing where the weak points lie and the best means for remedying them. In all, six games were played; two defeats by the Washington's, one each from the Philadelphias and Bergen Points and two games won from the University of Pennsylvania was the result of the week's trip. The team was made up as follows: McBride, 1b; Calhoun, 2b; Cushing, s.s; Noyes, 3b; G. McClintock, r.f; N. McClintock, l.f; and Graves, c.f. The pitchers were Stagg, Dalzell and Travers; the catchers, Poole, McClung and Heffelfinger.

Yale was also represented during the intermission in a number of places by the Glee and Banjo clubs. The clubs composed of twenty-eight men, gave the first concert in Norfolk, Va., the following evening one at Fortress Monroe. Leaving there, the next concert was at Washington, where a reception was tendered the clubs at the White House. The two following days concerts were given at Philadelphia and Brooklyn, the clubs returning home in time for the opening of college.

The trip of the Yale Apollo Glee club was the most extended one yet taken by that organization, concerts being given in Charleston, Atlanta and Savannah.

The junior and sophomore crews went to their training tables last week. Both these crews and the freshman crew are practicing daily in preparation for the spring regatta which comes off on the 18th. The race between these three crews will doubtless be very exciting, as they are evenly matched. The candidates for the freshman crew have been reduced to ten, and are as follows: Klinyke, 158 pounds; Jones, 169; Morison, 176; Adams, 180; Thompson, 170; Haskell, 163; Robinson, 167; Balliet, 165; Crosby, 165; and Swayne, 156.

A change in class day from Monday, June 24 to Friday, June 21, has been made by the faculty, so as not to interfere with the Commencement of Sheff.

An attempt is being made by the seniors to have the faculty reconsider this action, as the new departure necessitates many changes in Commencement week. YALE NEWS.
